The Billionaire's Unexpected Proposal by Samantha

At twenty-two, Evelyn knew exactly what she wanted. She had always known it since she was fifteen and had wanted the very same thing for the past six years to marry the love of her life right after her graduation from school and start her own family.

She believed herself to be the luckiest girl on earth to have her dreams come true.

Here she was, a week after her graduation, trying on her wedding dress for the final fitting before the wedding tomorrow.

Her fiancé, Michael, was the one and only love of her life. She had met him three years ago, and it had been love at first sight for both of them. In less than twenty-four hours, they would be walking down the aisle. Ecstatic didn't do justice to what she was truly feeling.

"You're going to make the most beautiful bride ever, Eve," Sandra, her stepsister, cooed, breaking into her thoughts.

"I already feel like the most beautiful bride, Sandy. This feels like a fairytale, and I'm about to begin my happily ever after," Evelyn said with a wide smile.

"This is perfect. So perfect," Evelyn said, flashing the designer a delighted smile.

"Mike is not going to be able to tear his eyes away from you," Sandra said, admiring Evelyn as the designer added the final touch to her wedding dress.

Evelyn grinned as she twirled around, her eyes shining brightly. "Thanks, Sandy. What would I do without you?" Evelyn asked as she stopped turning and stood facing Sandra.

Evelyn's mother had died after birthing her, leaving her father no choice but to raise her alone. When she turned five, her father had married Sandra's mom, who was a single mother.

Sandra had been four years old while Evelyn was five, and they had gotten along so well together all these years and were best of friends.
